We found that she was scheduled to be shipped out for slaughter. We arranged to have her pulled from the slaughter pen.
We named her Aspercel after a Gray horse in an old Walt Disney film, The Horse in the Gray Flannel Suit.
Aspy’s condition was poor due to the neglect she endured. She was underweight, dirty (her tail was matted) and full of bumps and scrapes.
Because TBs are tattooed, we were able to locate a portion of her history. Her registered name is Full Fashioned, she raced a few times in CA and was a broodmare in 2020.
She has proven to be an asset to our program. While she is still nervous and doesn’t trust easily, she is slowly working her way into our program.
